Council Asks Staff to Look at Cosmetic Pesticide Ban

March 1st, 2010

Alex Cooper

Revelstoke Times Review

Council gave staff SIX MONTHS to prepare a plan for implementing a pesticide ban.

The request for the bylaw came from the city’s [ Enviro–Maniac ] ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE, who requested the city pass a bylaw similar to the one adopted by INVERMERE [ a nearby jurisdiction ].

Currently, the city and the local school district have stopped using cosmetic pesticides on their properties.

A bylaw, if passed, would extend the ban to private properties as well.

[ Enviro–Maniac ] Councillor CHRIS JOHNSTON said he hoped the bylaw could be passed « sooner rather than later ».

« If we’re going to do it I’d like to see it done for this pesticide season » he said.

Mayor DAVID RAVEN proposed giving staff six months to prepare a report out of concern for their workload.

DARREN KOMONOSKI, the operations manager for city public works, said six months would do.

« I don’t know if it’s as simple as just saying we want to adopt INVERMERE’s bylaw » he said.

« Perhaps we need to investigate and see if we can custom fit one that maybe better fits the city of Revelstoke. I think that will take a few weeks to consider that. »

[ Enviro–Maniac ] SARAH NEWTON, director of the NORTH COLUMBIA ENVIRONMENTAL SOCIETY, said in an e–mail she was hoping the city would expedite the process.

« Many municipalities and indeed provinces have already implemented laws just like the one proposed last week. Pesticides simply for beautification seem innocuous however they are now known to be cancer causing toxins » she wrote. [ Wrong ! ]

« We urge city council to follow the lead of other communities, and the recommendations of the[ Contemptible and Radical ] CANADIAN CANCER SOCIETY and implement a strong ban on cosmetic pesticides. »

The cost of pesticide–free sports fieldsis expected to increase to $45,000 from$25,000 if the city continued to use acontractor, or to $33,750 if the citypurchased its own field maintenanceequipment at a cost of about $80,000.

Enviro–Maniac Environment Committee Pushing Pesticide Ban

February 22nd, 2010

Alex Cooper

Revelstoke Times Review

A new bylaw banning the use of cosmetic pesticides is in store if the City of REVELSTOKE’s [ Enviro–Maniac ] ENVIRONMENTAL COMMITTEE has their way.

Speaking at their meeting last Wednesday, February 17, committee member [ and Enviro–Maniac ] SARAH NEWTON said the city previously pledged to adopt a cosmetic pesticide ban.

« I would like to remind them by recommending a bylaw » she said.

As a model, she used the bylaw implemented by INVERMERE, BRITISH COLUMBIA.

The INVERMERE bylaw bans the use of pesticides except to manage pests that transmit diseases or impact agriculture or forestry.

It also provides exceptions of use on or inside buildings or on land used for agriculture, forestry, transportation, public utilities or pipelines.

« This is cosmetic » said [ Enviro–Maniac ] NEWTON.

« It does not mean spraying in your house. It does not mean spraying for mould. It doesn’t mean napweed. It’s just beautification. »

Pesticides, such as DDT, have been linked to numerous health issues, including cancer. [ Wrong ! ]

A survey conducted last Fall by the NORTH COLUMBIA ENVIRONMENTAL SOCIETY indicated that 68 per cent of respondents supported a ban on cosmetic pesticides. [ So what ?!?! ]

The INVERMERE bylaw carries a minimum penalty of $500 and a maximum fine of $10,000.

Last Summer the City of REVELSTOKE stopped using pesticides on its property.

In a report by DARREN KOMONOSKI issued in May, the cost of maintaining the city’s sports fields was expected to increase to $45,000 from $25,000 if the city continued to use a contractor, or to $33,750 if the city purchased its own field maintenance equipment at a cost of about $80,000.

« The INVERMERE bylaw looks short and sweet. It’s easy to read, easy to understand » he said.

« Give it a time frame for people to comply. Everybody’s going to cry, maybe extend the deadline if it’s not working, but get it started anyway. »

[ Enviro–Maniac ] JOHNSTON did say there should be a PHASE IN, especially to help the city–owned REVELSTOKE GOLF CLUB.

« Immediate compliance I just can’t see but given time and planning and budgeting and working with the city and sharing equipment, all that sorts of stuff, I think you can do anything » he said.

Cosmetics Pesticides Ban Proposal Gains Momentum

April 27th, 2009

Aaron Orlando

Revelstoke Times Review

The [ Environmental–Terror–Organization ] NORTH COLUMBIA ENVIRONMENTAL SOCIETY’s plans to have cosmetic pesticides banned from REVELSTOKE have gained support from a number of community groups and organizations over the past months.

So far the initiative has gained support from the Friends of Revelstoke & Glacier National Park, Revelstoke School District No. 19, Revelstoke Youth Soccer, the Illecillewaet Greenbelt Society and the Revelstoke Rod and Gun Club. [ Big Deal ! ]

The [ Environmental–Terror–Organization ] NORTH COLUMBIA ENVIRONMENTAL SOCIETY hosted two forums on the topic on April 16.

The first presentation was to members of REVELSTOKE council and the later public evening presentation was held at the Revelstoke Community Centre.

The forums featured two speakers.

The first presenter was physician Dr. WARREN BELL who is the past founding president of the [ Environmental–Terror–Organization ] CANADIAN ASSOCIATION OF PHYSICIANS FOR THE ENVIRONMENT ( CAPE ), and is the president of medical staff at Shuswap Lake General Hospital in SALMON ARM. [ He is also a PAID–FOR–PROFIT HIRED GUN LOBBYIST for Contemptible and Radical CANADIAN CANCER SOCIETY. ]

The second presenter, JERILYNN KIELY, is a community action coordinator for the Interior of BRITISH COLUMBIA. with the [ Contemptible and Radical ] CANADIAN CANCER SOCIETY. [ She is also a PAID–FOR–PROFIT LOBBYIST–VIXEN. ]

The Times Review attended the daytime presentation at the REVELSTOKE City Council Chambers.

[ Enviro–Maniac ] BELL presented his thoughts on pesticides, focusing on his perspective as a physician and also relating stories from his experiences working to have a ban enacted in SALMON ARM, as well as national–level activism on the subject with [ the Enviro–Terror–Organization ] CAPE.

He defined cosmetic pesticides as those that are used for beautification, saying it did not include agricultural pesticides or those used for health or safety reasons.

[ Enviro–Maniac ] BELL said that after World War II, there was an explosion of new [ and safer ] chemical pesticides based on the production of new synthetic molecules.

At the time, the new wonder chemicals were making short work of pests, and were put into a wide variety of uses. Although they proved to be effective at performing certain tasks, such as killing a specific unwanted insect or weed, BELL says adequate testing was never done to see what effects the chemicals had on other animals, including humans. He also said there was never adequate study on the cumulative effects the pesticides when combined with other pesticides or common everyday chemicals, giving bleach as an example.

« Somehow, we just didn’t get it » says [ Enviro–Maniac ] BELL.

« We thought we could do all these things –– we could kill, we could do ... death and somehow it would just happen in the right place at the right time and everything else would be fine. »

« As it turns out, the more we learn about especially new molecules, pesticides, the more we find out there is a problem. » [ Wrong ! ]

[ Enviro–Maniac ] BELL reviewed a number of [ Enviro–Maniac ] studies done over the past decades, and said that there is a correlation between increased pesticide uses and incidents of cancer. [ Wrong ! ]

He cited the ONTARIO COLLEGE OF FAMILY PHYSICIANS [ Disgraceful and Inaccurate ] PESTICIDES LITERATURE REVIEW which was review of dozens of studies on pesticides, which he says at least 84 per cent of which showed a POSITIVE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN PESTICIDES AND CANCERS. [ Wrong ! ]

« So the conclusion to the study, they took all the best studies, the more there was exposure the more there was cancer and the correlation with what is what’s called ‘dose response curve.’ More dose, more response. More pesticides, more cancer. » he said. [ Wrong ! ]

« And overall, the conclusion of this very large paper ― it’s 150 pages ― is essentially, the less you use pesticides, the better. »

[ Enviro–Maniac ] BELL noted resistance he faced at the local and national level when working on cosmetic pesticides in the past.

Those with financial interest in the status quo come out against the cosmetic bans, says [ Enviro–Maniac ] BELL, saying that organized national–level lobby selects local representatives to take up their cause at the community level.

« They get the local people to do their shouting » he said.

« They’re off in the background feeding them PARANOIA. »

[ In fact, it is Enviro-Maniacs like BELL who CONCOCT FEAR–MONGERING, FRAUDULENT LIES, MISCONCEPTIONS, COERCION, THREATS, DECEPTIONS, TERROR, and PARANOID CONSPIRACIES about PEST CONTROL PRODUCTS. ]

He also noted that a story on the subject in the local newspaper would likely draw a response in the form of a letter to the editor from pesticide lobby groups.

On the contrary, he notes that Canadian municipalities that have banned cosmetic pesticides have experienced growth in businesses such as lawn care and garden maintenance. [ Wrong ! Wrong ! Wrong ! ]

He also said that there were opportunities for marketing pesticide–free municipalities. REVELSTOKE could attract those wanting to live in a pesticide–free community. He noted that he had talked to real estate agents who had fielded questions about pesticide use on residential properties. [ So what ?!?! ]

[ Enviro–Maniac ] BELL also felt that a pesticide–free golf course could be advertised to attract golfers interested in a healthy round, adding that there are many alternatives to synthetic pesticides. [ Wrong ! ]

« There are lots of alternatives, but if you didn’t ever know about them it’d be like ‘Who the hell is going to come and play golf when weeds are choking (everything)’. »

[ Enviro–Maniac ] BELL, who spent years trying to convince local government in SALMON ARM to institute a cosmetic ban, says that a lack of awareness of alternatives, fears of the economic consequences of the ban, and plain old status quo thinking led to the delay.

« There’s kind of a culture that goes along with using pesticides » he said.

« ( One spray and ) you’re done. You move on. As opposed to bending over and pulling it up, or as opposed to having a couple of other people to do more work. »

He felt that once you raise awareness of the health issues and make alternatives available, eventually people realize the risks are not necessary.

[ Enviro–Maniac ] BELL returned to his concerns about the health impacts of cosmetic pesticides and the many unknowns, again noting the upward trend in the occurrences of cancers in modern society.

« None of the pesticides that are approved in Canada have ever been tested in combination with other pesticides » he said.

« So, the toxic effect of one have never been tested in concert with the toxic effects of any other. In addition, none of them have ever been tested against the things that we use in our own environment, like chlorine bleach ... Nobody has even bothered to test it. It’s known however, that we all have about between 40 and about 80 chemical residues in our body that we don’t even know about. »

Following BELL, [ Enviro–Maniac ] JERILYNN KIELY of the [Contemptible and Radical ] CANADIAN CANCER SOCIETY ( CCS ) presented the organization’s views on cosmetic pesticides in a presentation called ‘Pesticides and Cancer: Changing the way we think about lawns and gardens.’

[ Enviro–Maniac ] KIELY said that the CCS is an evidence–based organization and bases their arguments on facts and statistics. [ Wrong ! ]

She again defined cosmetic pesticides as non–essential pesticides used to enhance the appearance of lawns and gardens, saying that a recent poll has shown that 77 per cent of BRITISH COLUMBIANS supported a cosmetic pesticide ban. [ The small Enviro–Polls ORCHESTRATED and BOUGHT AND PAID FOR by known Environmental–Terror–Organizations like CANADIAN–CANCER–SOCIETY have NO SIGNIFICANCE whatsoever ! ]

[ Enviro–Maniac ] KIELY said the CCS believed that there is sufficient reason to want to take precautions.

She noted that children have increased health risks due to pesticide exposure. She cited a review that found children have a 2–3 times increased risk of childhood leukaemia associated with childhood or pre–natal exposure to household or garden pesticides. [ Wrong ! ] She also noted that pets are vulnerable too, and often track pesticides into the home. [ Despicably using children and pets as Weapons of Ultimate Terror against the Green Space Industry ! ]

[ Enviro–Maniac ] KIELY said the CCS was opposed to what is known as ‘Integrated Pest Management’ (IPM) which uses a combination of pesticides and other methods because it favoured pesticide use.

[ Enviro–Maniac ] BELL said that when IPM was first introduced it was developed as a reaction to pesticide use, but he said that pro–pesticide lobby groups had subsequently influenced the program so that it was now pro–pesticide.

She also noted that any effective ban of cosmetic pesticides at the municipal level would have to be backed up with an education campaign in order to be effective. [ Education programs spreading FEAR–MONGERING, FRAUDULENT LIES, MISCONCEPTIONS, COERCION, THREATS, DECEPTIONS, TERROR, and PARANOID CONSPIRACIES about PEST CONTROL PRODUCTS. ]

[ Enviro–Maniac ] KIELY also noted that there were business opportunities at the local level that arise from a cosmetic pesticides ban, including new garden businesses, increased sales of non–toxic alternatives and an increased demand for an environmentally–friendly approach. [ Wrong ! ]

Both [ Enviro–Maniacs ] BELL and KIELY said that bans on cosmetic pesticides could have a net benefit for the economy at the local level. [ Wrong ! Wrong ! Wrong ! ]

About 20 people attended the evening meeting at the Revelstoke Community Centre.

Following the meeting, NCES president [ Enviro–Maniac ] SARAH NEWTON said that the organization is continuing its efforts to have a cosmetic pesticides ban enacted in the municipality.

[ Enviro–Maniac ] NEWTON said the next step would be to write a formal request to the City of REVELSTOKE’s [ Enviro–Maniac ] Environmental Advisory Committee asking for an immediate stop to pesticide spraying on all city fields including the Queen Elizabeth Park field, the track field and the city baseball diamonds.

« Since School District No. 19 and Revelstoke Youth Soccer both support a full ban we would like these areas completely free of pesticides immediately » she wrote.

She said following that, the organization would likely once again approach the city’s ENVIRONMENTAL COMMITTEE and ask for a sub–committee to be formed to research and draft a cosmetic pesticide ban plan to be presented to REVELSTOKE City Council.

Huje is a term used to describe Enviro Maniac Activists that routinely concoct FEAR MONGERING, FRAUDULENT LIES, MISCONCEPTIONS, COERCION, THREATS, DECEPTIONS, TERROR, and PARANOID CONSPIRACIES that are DESIGNED to SCAM and DECEIVE the public into believing there is some NON–EXISTENT danger with conventional pest control products. Huje also SCAM and DECEIVE Government Officials into the NEEDLESS, SENSELESS, and MALICIOUS PROHIBITION of conventional pest control products that are FEDERALLY LEGAL, SCIENTIFICALLY SAFE, TOTALLY IRREPLACEABLE, and ABSOLUTELY INDISPENSABLE.

He holds a degree in Horticulture from the UNIVERSITY OF GUELPH, and another pure and applied science degree from McGILL UNIVERSITY. He has worked in virtually all aspects of the Green Space Industry, including GOLF, PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE, and CHEMICAL INDUSTRY, and has served in public affairs, workplace safety, and environmental compliance. Mr. Gathercole has supervised, consulted, programmed, and/or overseen the successful and safe execution of HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of pest control applications in the urban landscape. He has trained, instructed, and consulted with THOUSANDS of turf managers and technicians. Mr. Gathercole has also been an agricultural agronomist.

Mr. Gathercole is the ONLY TRUE RELIABLE WITNESS of the Hudson Affair.

Mr. Gathercole and his entourage have followed the evolution of ENVIRONMENTAL TERRORISM for over a quarter century. Through Force Of Nature, Enviro Maniac Activist Huje are identified on the basis of their statements, activities, affiliations, and whereabouts. Even though each Enviro Maniac Culprit is a misguided adversary, each still deserves our respect. The use of the terms Maniac, Culprit, Terrorist, or Basterd are not accusations of any legal wrong doing. Force Of Nature is simply holding Enviro Maniac Activists accountable for conspiring to change public policies that TERRORIZE, HARM, and THREATEN the Green Space Industry. Their pretentious prohibitionist rants have created LOSS OF REVENUES, BUSINESS FAILURES, BANKRUPTCY, and UNEMPLOYMENT, inflicting DESPAIR and DESTITUTION for THOUSANDS of hapless victims throughout the Green Space Industry. The DEPRAVED INDIFFERENCE of Maniac Culprit Terrorist Basterd Huje is viewed as a form of TERROR, HARM, and THREAT against the Green Space Industry.
